With the AP team I always am curious as to who voted, how many voted, and where they are from?

[KAISER SOSE]

Vince Murray and Brandon Griffin are only honorable mentions. Both of these players dominated 4A football in Northern Kentucky, but they can't get a place at the table for All-State. Several players who aren't even mentioned are Corey Farris, Rob Damashko, and Jordan Kramer. Next to Louisville, Nothern Kentucky has the best football in the state. Congratulations to all the Northern Kentucky football players who made the list. Good luck at the next level.

I do not know the names or where they are from but I think the number of writers that vote is 16.

I'm sure there were plenty of deserving players; congratulations to all those who made it.

 

As for notables who aren't there from CovCath are Peter Sutton and Kurt Bovard.

Kurt Brovard is on honorable mention, but no one deserves to be there more than Jordan Kramer...1586 yards rushing...9.4 yards a carry and 27 touchdowns. Pretty impressive numbers

Griffin actually made 3rd team. But I agree about Murray, Kramer, etc. being left off..........a joke.
